Chapter 20 – *Piece By Piece

And all I remember is your back
Walking towards the airport, leaving us all in your past
I traveled fifteen hundred miles to see you
I begged you to want me, but you didn't want to

Logan heads back to his apartment feeling like he's just won the lottery. He's spent the entire day with Rory and Richie and it's late and he has work in the morning, but none of that matters. He's got his Ace back.

The night goes by quickly as he showers and heads to bed. Before he falls asleep he texts her to say 'I love you." She responds in kind and before he knows it, it's morning and he leaves for work.

Once at the office he notice a hush has fallen over the normally vivacious crew that works so tirelessly for him and HPG. He looks around concerned until he spots through the window of his corner office, his father.

"Fuck." He says. Apparently he said it out loud because as he approaches his assistant gives him a nod to say, yes indeed, fuck.

Logan composes himself and walks in, "Dad, I would say it's a pleasure to see you, but I'm sure this isn't a social call, so what can I help you with?"

"It actually was going to be a social call, son. I came to inform you of the ridiculous rumors floating around about you and Odette so you could be prepared for any paparazzi questions, but while I'm here what do I happen to see but said divorce papers. Guess the jokes on me huh son?"

Logan has been caught off guard. Divorce? He had no idea Odette had already filed, but as he too can see the papers are on his desk. He should have known better. Of course she did, she already knew he and Ace were going to work this out, way before he did.

But still the thought of losing O hurts his heart. She was an amazing woman who has stood by him through some seriously messed up shit and she loves Richie.

"This is nothing to joke about dad. We are separated and yes, in the process of a divorce. But it's not really any of your business."

"The hell it's not. Not only are you my son, but also my employee. It is 100% my business. This is about that Gilmore girl isn't it?"

"Like I said it's none of your business."

"Logan..."

"God dammit Dad I said it's none of your fucking business. It's my life and my marriage, and my child. You need to back off."

"Well I will do just that."

"Thank you." Logan sits at his desk and tries to compose himself.

"You're welcome. And in I will thank you to have your desk cleaned out by end of day."

"Excuse me?"

"You're fired son. I can't have this type of distraction in my company.

Logan wants to be angry, but he suddenly realizes that he feels like a huge weight has been lifted off his shoulders. He was never meant to work for his father, it was just something he let happen when he didn't care what was going on with his life, but he'd been stifled here.
